ABBA tribute act set to become Super Troupers at Consett's Empire Theatre

ABBA Mania will play the Empire Theatre in Consett next month in a hit-packed show

Oneof the world’s top touring ABBA tribute acts is heading to the region.

ABBA MANIA, will take to the stage at the Empire Theatre in Consett on Saturday, September 27.

Formed in 1999, the show has packed out theatres and concert halls internationally and has toured the world in its quest to bring the music of the Swedish supergroup to their millions of fans, old and new.

In 2007 it grossed more than $1 million at the box office in Sydney, Australia. The show has ventured to France, Denmark, Belgium, Spain, South Africa, New Zealand, Singapore, USA, Australia and South Korea as well as touring the UK extensively.

Agnetha, Bjorn, Benny and Annifrid, collectively known as ABBA, dominated the charts for nearly 10years and enjoyed nine UK number one hits.

At their height they became Sweden’s highest export earners, amazingly outselling Volvo cars. In the early 80s, they decided to go their separate ways, but their music still lives on.

With over two hours of uplifting, dance inducing songs, fully live with fantastic staging, lighting and effects, ABBA Mania recreates ABBA’s sound not only near perfectly, but respectfully too.

Hits include Dancing Queen, Waterloo, Mamma Mia, The Winner Takes it All, Super Trouper, Fernando, Take A Chance On Me and many more that continue to fill dance floors worldwide.

Tickets are available for £18.50. To book contact the box office on 01207 218171 or book online at www.leisureworks.net
